PDPTA'06 - The 2006 International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Processing Techniques and Applications

Last modified 2007-11-17 09:57

Monte Carlo Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA (June 26-29, 2006)

    PDPTA'06 is an international conference held simultaneously (ie, same location and dates) with a number of other joint conferences as part of WORLDCOMP'06 (The 2006 World Congress in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, and Applied Computing). WORLDCOMP'06 is the largest annual gathering of researchers in computer science, computer engineering and applied computing. Many of the joint conferences in WORLDCOMP are the premier conferences for presentation of advances in their respective fields (for the complete list of joint conferences Click Here).

    The motivation is to assemble a spectrum of affiliated research conferences into a coordinated research meeting held in a common place at a common time. The main goal is to provide a forum for exchange of ideas in a number of research areas that interact. The model used to form these annual conferences facilitates communication among researchers in different fields of computer science, computer engineering and applied computing. Both inward research (core areas of computer science and engineering) and outward research (multi-disciplinary, Inter-disciplinary, and applications) will be covered during the conferences.

    The last set of conferences (PDPTA'05 and affiliated events) had research contributions from 76 countries and had attracted over 1,500 participants. It is anticipated to have over 2,000 participants for the 2006 event.

    You are invited to submit a draft paper of about 5-8 pages and/or a proposal to organize a Technical Session/workshop (see the Submission information). All accepted papers will be published in the respective conference proceedings. The names of technical session/workshop organizers/chairs will appear on the cover of the proceedings/books as Associate Editors.

    Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

      • Parallel/Distributed applications: Numerical computations/methods, neural networks and fuzzy logic, medicine, remote sensing, computer vision, computer graphics and virtual reality, parallel/distributed databases, banking, financial markets, high-performance computational biology, ...
